'''Sporadic Droolings''' is a music [[zine]] from New Jersey released in the 1980's.

−

Published and edited by [[Dave Burokas]], '''Sporadic Droolings''' focused on various genres of music, particularly [[punk]], as evidenced by interviews with bands like The Dils, The Nils, Minutemen, Marginal Man, Hard-Ons and Honeymoon Killers; but, as well, industrial groups such as Kommunity FK and Amor Fati were also featured; even country punk bands, like Rank and File, appeared in the pages of the zine. The focus was international, including features on the Australian scene and bands like Celibate Rifles, but the local New Jersey scene was never overlooked and always well represented. A number of personalities of the period were contributing writers; most were well-known for either being zine editors, such as [[Jack Rabid]] of [[The Big Takeover]], or musicians, such as Bloody Mess, or, like [[Donny The Punk]], [[Mykel Board]] and [[Shane Williams]], as writers for the publications [[Flipside]] and [[Maximum Rock N Roll]]. The Art Department was [[Carrie McNinch]], who created several covers for '''Sporadic Droolings''', as well as many illustrations and comic strips. Extensive zine, record, and show reviews rounded out the publication.
